There’s a lot going on in this side scan analysis of this tiny bit of the Meadowbank and Rhodes area of the Parramatta River.
There is a rail bridge, pedestrian bridge, boat ramp and ferry wharf along with a decent amount of “lost property”.

This blog is a special request from Kristin who asked me to take a look under the Leichhardt Rowing Club pontoon with my side scan sounder.
